Item description from seller

See photos for condition details. Hardcover, forced green cloth boards with gilt on front and spine. Exterior has some spotting and toning along with edge and corner bumps/wear. The internal binding is good, hinges are secure although there are hairline cracks starting at boards. There are no signatures or bookplates, no library markings, no handwriting, nothing torn or loose. Pages are toned due to age and there is some foxing and light smudge marks present, but these are mainly limited to the end pages and pastedowns. Last text page listing the epilogue is still uncut.
